Honestly I don’t know where our family would be without our trainer from here, Justine. She’s helped us develop a deep understanding of both of our dogs particular needs, their energy, our energy, and how these variables interact with each other. We had about given up when dog started attacking our other pets. We assumed she had been the aggressor and the problem, and were convinced we had to make a heartbreaking decision. It turns out our other dog was the fuse that lit the fire, given how disrespectful he is of boundaries and how his energy clashes with hers. We are forever changed and better as people, and as dog owners, since we started working with Justine. Her intuition and understanding of dogs, other animals, and humans is rare and deeply needed. I highly recommend Off Leash K9 Training Twin Cities and Justine Mendez.

I can't say enough about how amazing Justine is as a trainer. Our Duke is a changed dog. He went from a manic, obsessive, fearfully reactive dog to an amazing family dog. on top of that Justine taught me so much about dog behavior and dog body language so I can advocate for Duke when he is in a situation that might trigger him to be reactive. He now has an off switch and can calm himself when he gets stressed. She is one of the only people who I trust 100% with my dogs.

Justine is a great trainer! We have giant breed dogs and she taught them basic obedience and awesome leash manners. We did the board and train along with follow up obedience classes.
